TIE SUPREME Court.

The Supreme Court on Monday filed
their opinion reversing the court below
in the case of State VS.. Giersch-decid
ing that Wine and Lager Beer are iuclud-
ed in the terms 'Spirituous Liquors" and
hence these cannot be sold in those
places where Local Option prevails
The opinion is somewhat of surprise,
because the court very strongly intima-
ted that spirituous liquors did not include
wine and beer, in the State vs. Nash.
